LG Vortex

I was going to use this as a camera for my theatre class because I don't have any other phone, but I factory reset it because someone else had owned it before me. I can't activate it because every time I call *228 to activate it, there's an error. I don't know if anyone has a workaround for this, but I'd greatly appreciate any help I can get.

I can't seem to save anything to my internal storage. Without an SD card, I can't use my camera. Anyone know how to fix this? I've searched my phone thoroughly and can't find a way to change it.

Is it possible to connect the vortex to my tv and use my netflix app so that i can see on my tv whats on my phone screen?

my phone is telling me i have low storage space (26 mb) and is rejecting incoming text messages. I deleted the majority of apps, all of my text messages, have no music, and only a few pictures. Has anyone else experienced this? if so, could you please help me resolve it?

IS there any way to set up a reminder alert if you miss a text message or a call. If not, what app can you download for this?

Does anyone know if the phone's camera has a flash option? If so, how do I use it or even find it. Also wanted to know how to set it to notify when a text has been received.

On the main screen where the date and weather
are.I accidently deleted it can I get that back?

I was wondering if I got the basic data plan. Could I turn off the network and use only wifi when available?

uhh well if the touch screen is so bad then the rest of the optimus line should be equally as bad.
according to this review:
